Action Plans for Turns 15 and 16
Turns taking place during the years of Amanda Hawk’s temporary retirement from life as a public figure.
These turns were long and contained many small sub votes to determine Amanda’s reactions. This section only contains the initial vote due to the complexity of the sub votes.
2120 - Turn 15
MAJOR
- Cities and Circles
- The Circles are your greatest and most enduring creation, according to many. Now that you’re free of the demands of government, you can finally give them the attention that they deserve again. Amelie is deeply excited by this possibility, and she tells you that every member of the Hearts shares that feeling. You’re not quite sure it’s so universal, but you aren’t going to argue. There’s so much that the vast family you started building as a child can do; for themselves, humanity, and you. If Practice can be brought together by focus, they’re the perfect place to start.
- Halo LINK
- The strength of the Circles has always been in their greater connection, and you are a part of that no less than the newest member. Yet, it’s been fifteen years since you last walked with them. You already plan on remedying this, but it might be wiser to prepare them for what you plan to ask before actually doing so. Dedicating the majority of your time this year simply to being with them again will greatly strengthen the foundation for the work to come. It will also give you a perfect reason to travel widely across the intertwined organisations.

MINOR
- Mother of Circles
- Beyond returning to the Circles to learn and teach, there’s also the opportunity to simply be part of them again. You never lost your place among them, you simply set it aside for a time. Now you can return to it if you wish, to grow and build.
- Valkyries
- The Two Twenty Three were the only force to emerge from the Second Battle of Sol intact, after facing the most lethal of the FSN’s enemies in that fight. They brought down the Medicament, and faced Shiplords in direct combat aboard Calypso. Yet there is much that can still be done to temper the blade of the Unisonbound, and you are part of that weapon. It must not be marred by imperfections.
- Incarnate
- Iris. The first AI born instead of created. Young, headstrong, brilliant, and ultimately the perfect poster child for how little your race has to fear from the 3rd Revolution. Except, she cannot walk among you. Not really. She is bound to holographic networks if she wishes to project an avatar, and that just isn’t good enough. Not for her, or humanity.
- Faith and Certainty
- The quasi-religious movement that existed before your personal engagement with a Shiplord surged to life after the end of the Second Battle of Sol. It began in the Circles, despite how you’d never wanted people to…believe in you like that. But now you can try to understand where it came from, and what the movement's trying to be.
PERSONAL
- Unison Training
- Training with the entire Two Twenty Three is one thing, but you can get just as much personally out of dedicating time to work with your own small part of it. Vega, Kalilah and you represent three of the organisations most powerful members, and a high level of synchronicity between you will reflect on the rest even without full group training. Of course, combining the two will make that effect much stronger.
- Harmonic Voice
- Vega’s Harmonic Circle will be attempting their first group workings this year, but that pressure is far less than she was under as a Minister. After her monumental success in Speaking at the Elder’s Vault, continuing to work with her can only benefit you both.
- Child of Sight
- Some have called Iris your daughter. In this case, the some would not be entirely wrong; you’re definitely one of the most important people in the young AI’s life. You might not be the expert that Amelie is, but the last time you checked, stability was important for children.
- Blood Ties
- You hadn’t properly seen your family for far too long, and apparently, they weren’t willing to wait for invitations. With the Residence mostly empty, they’ve taken over several parts of it and have been exceptionally clear in their intent to stay. President Hawk might have had valid reasons for them not being able to do that. ‘Mandy…less so.
- Restoration
- You’re adamant that you know how to relax, even if you might be more than a decade out of practice. Your siblings and friends, traitors one and all, don't believe you. They also outnumber you, and Vega is one of the few Unisonbound who is actually capable of catching you. She appears to be far too willing to carry through on that threat if you attempt to escape, as well.
2121 - Turn 16
MAJOR LINK
- Cities and Circles
- See Turn 15
- A Shared Brilliance LINK
- What you’re trying to do here is unlike anything else you’ve deliberately attempted. To tap the well of power through many, all with only a fraction of the strength that you possess yourself. Put bluntly, you’re flying blind here. The Circles possess a great many scientists, however. Between all of you, a better understanding of what you’re attempting to do should be well within your ability to grasp. With how the Circles appear to be put together on some levels, this might be able to help your scheduled work with Vega as well.
- See Turn 15
MINOR
- Mother of Circles
- Valkyries
- Tinker
- Being free of your old role changed many things, but one that didn’t was your interest in creating and understanding your own Practiced creations. Two of those remain unknown to you in full, and you finally have the time to study them. You also now have the time to dedicate to creation again. With all your new understanding of Practice. That’s going to be interesting.
- A Mender’s Forge: An oscilloscope
- An ordinary oscilloscope is used to measure voltage waveforms, and can be adapted to observe other signals. Amanda's Practiced oscilloscope can observe... somewhat more esoteric phenomena.

- Your part in the Mytikas Restoration has remained a secret, but Mary knows the part you played in it. She was born and grew up in that vast city, and with its complete Restoration…her childhood home has also been recovered. She is going to go see it. The only questions are when, and if you’ll be travelling with her.
